This aspect of the social educator's work contributes to understanding and mutual understanding, which in turn improves educational and social outcomes.The article analyzes the methods and approaches aimed at developing the discursive competence of a social educator.

The importance of using educational technologies to improve the quality of the process is emphasized.The article discusses aspects of a personal approach to learning, creating a favorable atmosphere for communication, introducing modern technologies. This helps to create a flexible learning environment that effectively meets the needs of participants. The author emphasizes the need for continuous development of the discursive competence of a social educator to meet rapidly changing educational and social needs.Finally, the importance of continuous learning and professional development in the field of discursive competence is emphasized.
